The State College Area School District in Pennsylvania offers health insurance for the domestic partners of its employees鈥攁s long as the domestic partners are not of the same sex. Kerry Weissmann, a school counselor in the district, and her partner, Beth Resko, are challenging this discriminatory policy.

The school district provides family health insurance coverage for domestic partners who are economically interdependent. However, the policy states, 鈥淒omestic partners cannot be the same gender.鈥� Wiessmann and Resko, who have been together over 25 years, have two children together and have intertwined family finances, meet all of the district鈥檚 domestic partner qualifications 鈥� except for their sexual orientation. Because Kerry cannot cover Beth on her plan, Beth had to take a significantly lower paying job in order to access health insurance.

The suit is being brought by the 老澳门开奖结果 of Pennsylvania, the 老澳门开奖结果 LGBT & AIDS Project, and private attorneys Andy Shubin, Justine Andronici and Seth Kreimer.
